TAKE CLEANING ACTION!

(Organize to manage time and effort)

Where is the starting point that leads to a clean and organized home?

Sticking to a customized plan of action!

Action step #1

Create
and prioritize a list of cleaning tasks for the home’s living spaces.
Every room in the domain is on this list. Establishing a clear method
with associated cleaning product(s) for each house cleaning task is
important. This will also jump-start an education related to the whys
and hows of cleaning. Also, the required knowledge for each how-to
cleaning task will inspire best practices for house cleaning success.
Deciding on specific tasks, with associated timelines, are required for
successful cleaning outcomes, for example:

Vacuuming

Sweeping

Wet mopping

Dust mopping

Kitchen appliance and bathroom cleaning

Furniture polishing

High dusting of walls

These
are some of the specific decisions to be made. Also, analyzing the
frequency of usage of each room is a necessary component for
establishing cleaning task timelines.

Action step #2

A
detailed examination: How many days with associated timelines are
available for routine cleaning tasks? Be honest, 30 minutes or 60
minutes a day or every other day per room, or will it be a weekend
marathon of cleaning tasks for all rooms? Without a doubt, dirty rooms
are markers of living in our homes. Our lives are ongoing 7 days a week,
week in and week out. We need to allocate time to clean; house cleaning
is a great exercise partner, or tasks can be delegated to someone else.
Routine cleaning of a home, regardless of who does it, will make a home
more enjoyable, more comfortable, and healthier.

Action step #3

Getting
started: Once you establish cleaning day(s) with tasks and the
associated timelines, you are now instituting structure for your
success. Daily, weekly, and rotating cleaning tasks will maintain a
clean home and your sanity, as well. Trust me, I am someone that loves
to clean, but house cleaning is a worthy adversary and it demands an
attentive approach, whether you like to clean or not.

Action step #4

Let’s
get moving: Once you are in possession of a reasonable plan of action
steps. Your customized and knowledgable how-to cleaning plan needs to be
comprehensive, as well as easily transferable. This personalized
blue-print for your home’s cleaning tasks can be passed on to another.
Also, it can be modified as you see fit. Possessing a house cleaning
plan that is effective and organized, will achieve cleaning success.
